while we are identifying cams how about 
on the side of my mystery cam it says 11.0 and 234  I am guessing 
this is 11 mm of lift and 234 degrees of duration at .050" check 
clearance  or something like that.  It just barely clears the ramps I 
think I can get a .005 or .010 feeler guage between the head and cam 
when the lobe is down.   It runs like a neuspeed 272 lumpy idle 
strong after 3k a noticible increas after 4k pulls strong untill 6200 
and beyond when racing honda's.  any guesses I bought it off a friend 
who used to have it on a circle track car  I was just curious what it 
was so i could recomend it to friends 
later

Got a micrometer and a index head?
